Dua Lipa Irritates Brazilian Fans For Delay Her Rock In Rio Concert Live on Television

[LeavinExhaleByYearEnd]

Dua Lipa irritated her Brazilian fans for delaying her live transmission of her concert in Rock In Rio on television. She asked the cable network Multishow which has been broadcasting Rock In Rio to delay the live broadcast in 30 minutes, she was the last to take stage at 0:10 (Monday morning already). No reason has been given. She then became one of the most talked topics on Twitter and generating a flurry of memes.

You can see her show best moments here:

Cantora foi a última atração do Palco Mundo do festival, neste domingo (11). Mais solta do que na vinda anterior ao Brasil, ela repetiu performance e setlist desta turnê, sem improvisos.

30 minutes causes that much of a commotion? Main pop girl only

[Fabricio Alex]

 waiting 30 minutes longer was NOT a big deal for me. The show was AMAZING!

wish i was there! but the view was pretty nive from my couch

Rock in Rio seems to always have some drama going on.

I still have PTSD from Britney 2001 RIR show. Between the mic being left on, and her cussing up a storm, the crowd booing the American flag during the Lucky performance and the Brazilian media bashing her for lip syncing. 
 

[that's hot y'all]

I'm scared for her ! brazilians are very aggressive and disorganized.

Doug from Brazil,  is she ok ?

Having seen the show front row twice I think you are very misinformed

Sorry but the American flag was a miss.

How? the song is about a girl who is from Hollywood. They wanted a Brazilian flag up there? Plus she did it in every concert around the world, and only the Brazilians booed and started chanting "Brazil!". Totally unnecessary.

Maybe you're not aware, but it's not every country which worships the US. Even less so its flag. So I can see why some people would've reacted that way.

They could've adapted this part of the concert to fit flags from the country in question, like LOTS of artists do. She might've been performing about a Hollywood girl, but she wasn't in the US. Therefore, unnecessary IMO - and I also don't think people should've booed her for it. Both things were uncalled-for.

But I guess it was just another instance of her team being a huge flop and not giving a d*mn. But they did care about those thousands of Reai$ Brazilian people paid, though

Nobody is saying they should’ve worshiped the American flag. But the reaction was uncalled for. That’s all.

De qualquer forma, foi ridículo a atitude dos brasileiros que estavam no show.

The problem is because many international acts come to Brazil and celebrate coming here displaying our Brazilian flag ou wearing the national soccer team. Even Madonna when she played at Rio in 1993 she wore Flamengo shirt soccer Rio team. That’s why Britney was called out. We already used to that kind of homage so it was strange when people saw the American flag.

it’s what they deserve for inviting a mid artist

The concept of the song is Hollywood. why would she put the brazil flag on the screen?

[mr. ferret]

I won't lie that I was annoyed that I couldn't see it live when all the other artists had no problems with that. As far as I remember only the idiot Drake had done something like that.

In the end the show was cool, but it was pretty weird not to show the show live. 

About the American flag at Britney's concert in 2001, the booing was for the flag not for her and yes, the Brazilians have reasons for that since the American government sponsored and supported a military coup in Brazil that lasted more than 20 years as well as it did in basically all of South America.

Neither was I saying that - which is exactly my point: why carry a symbol which had no need to be there? It's always a political statement in the end, even if Britney herself didn't think of it that way. She was in Brazil, not in the USA; a majority of artists (or, in Britney's case at the time, her team) have common sense and don't do it, or they use the specific flag of the country they are in - as I've already mentioned.

Uncalled-for? Yes. But come on, I mean... It wasn't the Olympics

She didn’t delay the show. She didn’t want the show to be live on television hence why the delay.
